To the best of my ability, I have planned, documented and pre-paid much of our Christmas European circle trip. The only detail left to deal with is pre-reserved passes for Anne Frank house in Amsterdam.
However, I am not sure if our clothing situation will work out so well this year!
Both Ross and I have really good winter clothing dealing superbly to frigid European winters. Unfortunately, Teagan has put a "spanner in the works" for me this year. New snow boots (snoots) purchased in the Bavarian Alps last December fitted nicely in Dunedin and Queenstown five months ago; a test fitting three weeks ago could not force bent toes down into boot. Fortunately, Landsend.com were having a major sale so I purchased a new set of winter outerwear for the "weed" and in true colours decided to pay for "international priority airmail" saving USD25 on the order (as opposed to a direct courier service). As time closes in on our departure the test is; will it arrive on time? Will I ever learn that for some things cost should be secondary especially when the difference is not so large! Personally, I think not!
